The part of the fish tank he hit had rubber on it.

Oh and another thing, the fish tank glass withstood the screen on the phone.
Haha, that was great. I love it when corporate people have a sense of humor. That CEO cracked right up.

They look like old buddies in that pic.
Anyways, the phone still works. I don't think they have a huge choice on materials for a screen that wouldn't make the phone cost $500,000.
Well honestly I'm surprised it only broke after 3 hits in the corner of a fish tank. That's definitely a tough phone.
But if you're going to market it as unbreakable...
To be honest it would be pretty tough in an accidental circumstance, but this is quite a powerful trauma it is undergoing which I doubt would happen in real life.

I've seen people break a sledgehammer.

Proper spring-dampening system and a LED grid.
I blame socialized medicine. They're breaking hardworking American products.

Some people are talented enough to be capable of breaking anything and everything they touch.
Just ask my brother or my youngest cousin.
"This is the worls most rugged phone"
*Wacks it not that hard on the side*
"Seems the screens gone"
"Aw fuck"
TBH i guess they can't really choose the most rugged sreens as it would make it incredibly expensive.
Does this mean he gets a free phone now?
This is so cool
[QUOTE=RaveRaze;19571201]There's a difference between being unbreakable, and having the screen smashed repeatedly against the sharp edge of a fish tank.[/QUOTE]No, there isn't. If you market something as UNBREAKABLE, you better sure hope it's actually unbreakable! Smashing the screen on the corner of a fish tank should not even come close to breaking it.
Just put a thick sheet of lexan with a layer of glycerin between it and the screen, and it would be damn hard to break that.

Apparently.
[QUOTE=:smug:;19579178]Apparently.[/QUOTE]But he didn't buy it :downs:
Damn I should of went to the convention.
Sucks to be that CEO.
Two days later, looks like that thing needs a screensaver.

But the guy claimed it could be dropped from a 10 storey building... Come on.
I think he was hiding his sobs, probably put a lot of money into the development of that phone.
Regardless, unless you plan to smash somebodies face in with your phone, that thing looks like it'll withstand normal stress.
This ship is completely unsinkable.

Yeah, it seems like everytime someone claims something is unbreakable God or Fate shits all over it.
What the fuck, who in their right mind tries to break something against a fish tank?
[QUOTE=David29;19615390]But the guy claimed it could be dropped from a 10 storey building... Come on.[/QUOTE]
It probably could be. The phone still works, the screen is busted though. If it falls from 10 stories then it might not even hurt the screen.
Well, it is a prototype.
[QUOTE=Sleepy Head;19570378]the CEO's reaction is hilarious, glad he wasn't a dick about it.[/QUOTE]
Exactly at least he dident go OH MUST BE A DEFECTIVE PHONE!!!11!
The CEO's claim was obviously phony
lol
Does he get a free phone now?
I want to go to a store that sells that phone, and then just throw it at a wall.
Hopefully it will break and i can walk out with it.
The phone is probably pretty damn foolproof, but the screen is not.
